I see that my translation was fairly wooden: "If you should die while trying to save the consul's life, the citizens would praise your very brave deed and urge that your statue be placed in the forum." My main problem with this one was what to do with tuī. Is "a statue of you" the same as "your statue" in latin? For some reason I'm still uneasy about possessive pronouns.

Still, this is a strange sentence. I don't think any real Latin speaker would have put it this way.... As it is now, tui could modify either consulis or cives (statua seems less likely). It probably is supposed to go with cives, as modus.irrealis says; but all ambiguity could have been removed by placing it aftercives.

Well, that's pretty much what I had too. I think the reflexive pronouns are there simply to provide the subject accusative for the indirect statements, e.g., the soldiers said "we don't give a fig about death", parum mortem verēminī, (no separate subject... it's included in the verb); but when it goes into indirect statement "they confessed that they didn't fear death....", you need to supply the accusative subject sē. I had "After the general's long speech the soldiers admitted that they had little fear of death [?feared death insufficiently] but....."

P.S. On re-reading I'm not clear. Were you interested in a translation of the whole sentence, or do you want to persevere with it youself?
